About the author

Colleen Moore was born Kathleen Morrison but changed her name so it would easily fit on a marquee. She had a passion for movies from an early age and began working as a teenager for director D.W. Griffith. She later became a big star when she began to embody the flapper persona but faded away when the talkies came in.

Her relationship with first husband John McCormick inspired the relationship in the film A Star is Born. She married three other times to Albert Scott, Homer Hargrave, and Paul Maginot.

She created a highly ornate and richly detailed doll house which the Museum of Science and Industry preserved and put on display.
